Itazura Favoriteland

“What are you? For someone to cause so much trouble, you do have a great planning mind! You’re a ruthless trickster!”

“I get that a lot…can you blame me? After all, Mischief is a treacherous thing to dance and deal with.”

“What would you call yourself?”

“Considering I’m Mischief itself, I wouldn’t know”

“Hmm, well you do remind me of a norse god, you both have a lot in common.”

“What? That’s nonsense! I’ll think about it though.”

—Ronri talking to Itazura

Itazura Favoriteland is the distant, youngest son of Hyuzu Favoriteland and is the secondary antagonist, yet main character in Favoriteland Rebirth. He is only around 13 at the start of Rebirth, but is 14 by the end of it. He’s about 15 in Uprising. At the end of Uprising, he is shown to inhabit Mythra’s big, empty palace with Angie telling us he became the king. We see him in Legacy as a 12 year old and in a flashback as a young child at the age of 5 years old. He’s the Favorite of Mischief while his brother is the Favorite of Solemnity, making them a chaotic pair to be matched. But the two of them clash quite often, making it hard for either of them to win. The inspiration of his colour was the fact that green means envy. Although he’s definitely not the Favorite of Envy, it was his envy of Azrix and Hyuzu’s favouritism that led him towards this attitude that will never change in the first place! When Hyuzu says Itazura didn’t look anything like him, even as a newborn, it hurt Itazura and led to him craving attention and causing havoc to get said attention. He’s developed a habit for it by now and even adores it. He also makes a stand as the secondary protagonist in Favoriteland Uprising as a vengeful and shut off person due to Flare causing an incident. He goes as far to curse at Flare and call upon his “two preciouses” to attack, only to be pulled back.

Appearance:
Itazura takes a similar appearance to that of Orochi. Particularly the fact that they both have snake tongues and their style for a regal outfit. His eyes are nearly the same as Derlink’s, with his magical colours being bright and forest green. He has a three pronged tail to slice his foes and not two fangs, but TEN fangs unlike any other Favorite. His signature weapons are two sabre swords that can shrink to the size of daggers, making him a formidable foe. Not to mention while he mostly fights with two, if he really tries, FOUR can be in use at the same time. These weapons called haladies are two bladed daggers with a handle in the middle. He by using up to four of hem, as a force of 8 sharp and piercing blades that slice through armour.

Itazura has bright green eyes similar to Derlink’s eyes, but appear nearly black at the top. He like all skelia mythrians have black scalera. But due to a massive accident, Itazura is blind in his right eye, or at least, his pupil is no longer visible. Making characters question if he’s blind, or if his eye just turned black upon the accident. He has mainly a mischievous grin and narrow eyes as well. His hair is pitch black, but with a green tint. Unbeknownst to Hyuzu who just put it off as unique, is actually because of his destiny since on Htrae, colours are given meaning. Dark green means to trick people/deception and bright green means envy (like Derlink’s envy over Azguel for example) black means to strategize and it means death. Since Itazura was born the Favorite of Mischief, it was only natural for his hair to be that way, along with his eyes (which were actually intended to be deep blue at first, but was scrapped).

The most recognizable feature of Itazura is his big sickle horns that unnaturally grew. His horns were supposed to grow normally like every other skelia, but his destiny to be the Mischief Favorite wrecked any sense of normality for Itazura. He was supposed to be guided down a path of havoc and chaos or so goes the legend. Leading him to having big sickle horns that attract attention. While his x-rays shown his horns would grow into a “bow shape” forming an archway, his horns completely switched their positioning due to his destiny, making them grow out of his forehead.

Itazura’s three pronged tail is also a symbolic Htralia reference to Mischief itself. Three pronged weapons and physical features were deemed unlucky and or dangerous due to legends. One prong means to falsely get someone’s hopes up, the second prong meaning to take advantage and the third one to dispose of and betray. But all prongs mean to cause problems and pranks of different levels on certain individuals. As such, some Htralia believed if someone had three sharp points longer than the last, the evil spirit Mischief would pay a visit and steal their soul, giving them to the Favorite of Death, or making them get into trouble, maybe even stealing their lives while they’re trapped until they die of grief and depression. Itazura’s tail is definitely identical to the three pronged weapon Htralia described Mischief having.

Itazura’s clothes were hard to design. He has a dark green cape with shimmering golden swirls all on it, giving off a bright and shiny golden light. His horns are coated with the crown of Mythra (which are golden rims supposed to go around the arms or horns depending on the species) with amethysts all on it. Decorating the horns meant valued respect and royalty. It gives Itazura an excuse to have huge crescent sickle horns that stand out. He also wears a pitch black sleeveless shirt with green shades of colour on the back (like a mini cape). His pants are black as well, taking on A Similar design like Pyro, with black spikes on the sides of them (a pattern not literal spikes). He also has black gloves with golden gauntlet like things and green emeralds on them in a small straight line. His wings are a little similar to Azguel’s death wings, but the top almost identically matches the bottom of the wing. In terms of shape. The wings are complete black with two shades of green on them. Unlike ANY other Favorite, who’s wings can turn invisible to disguise their identity, Itazura’s wings can fold under his cape, hiding them and putting them off as part of his costume. He has a semi collar around like a jacket of some sort with light purple swirls. Along with a damaged eye, his left eye seems to always be leaking black shadow sludge (the liquid of resentment and hate for Favorites), but other times it stops, revealing his narrow eyes. He has golden gills similar to Hyuzu too.

Personality:
Itazura’s personality has changed a lot over years of knowing he’s different from everyone else. Even his own brother Azrix seemed to have friends. But Itazura was always alone his entire life. Even when he was born, his father didn’t even want him! He was nearly put into an orphanage because he didn’t look like any of his parents. Hyuzu even left shortly after he was born. When his mom took Azrix to daycare, preschool and regular school as he grew up, Itazura was left alone. He always felt different from his family and wanted to be recognized and respected. He dreamed of sitting on the golden throne of Mythra with a mighty black staff in his hand as he overlooked his people that loved him. But he never was destined to sit on the throne thanks to him being born second. He resented Azrix for that, envied him, grew jealous of him. But he still loved him and he and Azrix were close. But ever since he was born, he knew how to instigate people, push their buttons and cause them to cry on their knees begging him to stop pranking them. He was a merciless trickster who craved attention and approval from his parents.

At three years old, his fascination with blades got concerning. He adored them for being “sharp and shiny” and he started tricking people into doing unspeakable things when they were just little kids blind to deception. He was also an introverted person who was bullied for his big horns and his “unlucky three pronged tail” they made fun of his ten sharp fangs and snake tongue that made him look like a wicked monster. His eye was also called out a lot and after a while, Itazura just couldn’t take it anymore and went on a merciless rampage. Pranking everyone who made fun of him cry before them. Sneaking stolen jewellery into their drawers, switching their lunches with things they were allergic to, eating their snacks. He even shoved a venomous snake down a bully’s backpack which bit him causing him to pass out. He also gave teachers a run fo their money when he put himself on the “best student list” when he turned himself to look like the principal. He fooled everyone when he turned into a terrifying lion cougar hybrid with venomous snake fangs and roared fiercely at his peers. Which shows that he’s not afraid to hurt his enemies or scare them into obeying his every command. But he’s also deep down a caring person who’d do anything for the people he loves or cares about. He misses his brother so much that he feels without him, he himself has no purpose anymore. He misses his mother who waited every day for her husband to return, only to go crazy and lock herself away int a mental institution. He despises his father for tearing their family apart and makes it his life goal to bend his father to his knees pleading for mercy.

in summary, Itazura is relentless, determined, mischievous, tricky, persuasive, clever, vengeful and brave for dealing with all that has happened. He’s childish, merciless, strong willed but also a caring person deep down. Much like his father, he is good with weaponry. Unlike his father though, he is family oriented. He’s stubborn and heartfelt in some moments he experiences. A misunderstood and unwanted being who wants respect is the main character of Rebirth and also the villain of the story, who turns to the good side all in good time. He is shown to be strong when it comes to showing his emotions. Like after he sees his mother years after she committed herself, he hugged her tightly and ran out of the institution bursting into tears after hearing that she still loves him after all the mischievous and concerning things he’s done. He was tearful when he asked why his father left after he was born and after hearing it was because he wasn’t ready for Itazura, he waisted he hadn’t existed. But now he ventures to track down the man that hurt everyone in his family.

Early Life:
Itazura’s early life was worse than Hyuzu’s by far. Even if Hyuzu died and came back, Itazura felt like dying multiple times on his conquest for revenge. He was born on April 13th, the day when legends say an evil demon like creature will be born to devour the entire next generation of Favoriteland and slaughter them if they got in his way, ruling all of Htrae with a sinister smile. Due to this suspension, many of the maids kept a distance away from Itazura, even if he was alone and wailing. But Diana was always there for her children and cared for them. Hyuzu wanted to give the newborn Itazura away to an orphanage due to him resembling the evil creature talked about in legends and that he didn’t look like his father at all aside from race and gills.

Right as he was born, Itazura was a misfit. Having powers unlike any member of the Favoriteland family tree has ever seen before. His mother immediately recognized that he was demonstrating “unique behaviour” with people telling her that Itazura was talking and deceiving children in the form of animals like kittens. At the time he was only 6 months old so it was “out of the question” for this to be possible right? Well Diana did notice that unlike his brother Azrix who was born more serious, strong and committed, Itazura was more sneaky and sly. He was always found in the castle library which seemed odd. Not necessarily READING, but rather playing with the paper. But Itazura was smarter than that, he deceived his family members by making them think he was “normal” that he was “just playing” but in reality he was reading advanced literature. While Azrix at age 3 had problems with learning how to read despite being a Favorite, but had no trouble with his strong Element and using it. As it would seem, Itazura was born much more intelligent, mysterious and creepily ominous at times whenever he got an idea.

The suspicion grew when Itazura turned 1 year old and tried to use his element. It was….undesirable for everyone at first. Itazura had no clue how to control this power he was born with and had to develop and train it by himself considering no other Htralia had the scary ability to turn other people into animals and vice versa. But it was defined that he did learn how to trigger it when he turned 4 year old Azrix’s ears into pig ears. Which of course was a dark day for the family.

Then when he was 2 years old, Itazura tried to conjure illusions. Not like Hamaliel’s which uses memories and only for himself, but rather ANYTHING. He could make a hurricane give off powerful winds and blow people away, but whoops, it’s all in your mind and now you’re stuck in a tree because of deceptions. In summary he started toying with reality. A little side note here is what this means. Itazura’s illusions aren’t real, but if you believe them they become real. This can lead to transformations that only Itazura can break! So it’s a deathly power to mess around with. If the illusion is on himself, like turning himself into a horse for example, no matter how much you believe it, Itazura will always be able to switch back. It will be semi real always.

His first illusion was to make himself into some sort of serpent. He did this because of his fascination for them. Snakes or rather serpents being the Htralia’s mischievous symbol, were drawn to Itazura. He DID turn himself into a deadly cobra and bit a very young Azrix, which made Azrix ill and vomit in the garbage. Itazura changed back and excitedly “eeed”, happily knowing he did it while his brother meanwhile, had his face in the toilet so he could throw up for an entire hour.

At age three, Itazura started playing with plastic knives and grew infatuated with the shiny steel blades hanging on the kitchen walls. He learned how to handle them with accuracy and with great skill by age 4 and a half. His mother had to put protection on anything sharp because he would always go for it. Sorta like a very young Hyuzu becoming obsessed with dynamite and other explosives. Except while Hyuzu loved explosives and set them off, Itazura actually USED the knives to cut things. Like tiny pranks he made (bucket of water dropping on someone’s head for example) in which he’d cut ropes to activate them. He also unintentionally hurt someone with a kitchen knife on Halloween. Itazura dressed up as a “Blade Vampire” and wanted to scare some kids for fun, so he brought two kitchen knives with him and jumpscared a child of 9 years of age. This child just so happened to be his elder brother by three years, Azrix, who dressed up as Poseidon for Halloween. Itazura screamed from behind “I’VE COME TO EAT YOUR SOULS!” While having a flashlight underneath him as he held the two bloody daggers (fake blood). Azrix screamed a high pitch scream and Itazura accidentally cut his arm as he was waving at his brother laughing.

After Diana found out about the Halloween accident, she told Itazura to NEVER play with knives, which of course only encouraged him to do it more and much more ruthlessly. He started questioning why he was doing these things and asked his mother why. She had no clue and Said it could’ve been inherited by his father since he was obsessed with explosives of all kinds at a young age. This led to Itazura asking why his father was nowhere to be found. Diana told him the truth that Hyuzu left after Itazura was born, panicking Itazura who questioned if it was his fault.

When Itazura was 5, he learned about his unique powers that no other Favoriteland ever had. The fact that he could read people’s minds, hover in midair, turn into a green fog, transform anything into anything or anyone into anything OR THAT TWO HUGE CREATURES COULD BE SUMMONED BY HIM was unspeakable and unique by far. The creatures were a humongous snake that towered over skyscrapers and another was a gigantic wolf of pitch black that seemed to be three times bigger that a tree. He started calling these things “His preciouses” and later realized they were from the future. The giant serpent said his name was Jotun and that he and Itazura were closer that Itazura thought. The wolf introduced himself as Fen and said that in the future, the two are extremely close as if they were related. The creatures appeared to Itazura first when he was 7 years old to explain this. When he confesses his love for his friend Angie, they never show themselves again until the most unexpected moment. The moments of which, are the births of his future two first children he repeatedly dreams about through the series (seeing into the future).

When Itazura’s brother left to search for their father at the age of 13, Itazura was devastated for a while. But he eventually got used to not seeing him anymore and even forgot how he looked for a long time as he took down all the family photos because his brother left. Hyuzu was never in one since Diana covered up his face to help her cope with his absence. He started to ask why his father left more and more because after he asked when he left, Diana said it was shortly after Itazura was born, making Itazura think it was all his fault for being born. He was frequently bullied by his peers since preschool due to his alarming amount of fangs and his three pronged tail. Also the fact that he looked nothing like his parents was a common insult used made Itazura have low self esteem. He started acting out and pranked his bullies over and over relentlessly until the pleaded for mercy. His big, weird horns though..those were the things that he was mostly bullied about.

Teenage Years:
When Itazura turned 13, he was reliving all the memories of how his family was torn apart. When he was 12, his mother accidentally “broke” his eye, making everyone think he was blind, but in reality his pupil just turned completely black, deceiving his opponents. His mother since then, committed herself to an insane asylum to keep Itazura “safe.” Itazura then at 13, sat on the throne of Mythra in boredom. He hated being responsible for everything and had an itch to cause mischief, but wasn’t able to due to being the king. But Itazura decided to go look for his brother and his father to mend his family back together, but to also get revenge on Hyuzu for abandoning them. He always wanted the throne, but now that he had it, it was nothing but boring. He even yawned at least 8 times everyday he sat on it. He liked the regal look, the staff, the gold, but didn’t like having to be bound by rules. You just cannot contain mischief forever.

He visited his mother in the insane asylum before he left to get closure on why Hyuzu left. After hearing it was because Hyuzu wasn’t ready for Itazura, he hugged his mother tightly and rushed out of the asylum in tears, feeling anything but happiness. He felt crazy and wanted to strangle somebody out of rage. Which he did! But they didn’t die, only pass out. He lied and said they choked and needed cpr instead and made one final announcement on the day he left:

“Mythrians that come before me, or are watching me give this speech. I know you think lowly of me compared to my brother or my father or mother. As a king I should be responsible and mature or whatever. I’m not ready to grow up just yet. There’s still a child inside me who wishes there was an issue to aid or at least see. I’m aware you think of me as an unlucky person as I was born on the day when that horrible creature does unspeakable acts of evil. But listen. I love being a king, I love it when people smile at each other and say I’m doing a great job. I’m only thirteen, I have no idea what I’m doing! But I appreciate you guys helping me along the way despite who I am. The frail second born upon the throne. Listen this isn’t about me though. I’m going to be absent from Mythra for a long long time in search of my brother and my father. They might have never returned, BUT I WILL! I promise I’ll return. If I don’t, I want the throne to remain empty until a member of my family comes along to sit on it. I’ll see you all later. God bless you all, see you on the other side!”

The people were shaken by the announcement and even though many were skeptics of Itazura, they all cheered for him.

So Itazura left Mythra to search for his father and his brother so his family could be reunited at LAST. He traversed all of Htrae, using his powers on each and every individual to see if any one of them have gone by. He later seen that Azrix went into the library and read up on Favoriteland. An isle that contained a majestic and mighty people. He was told by an agent he took over that Azrix went into the dark forest. So Itazura went in as well and found a shattered mirror laying on a black stone. He met a girl, about his age standing menacingly in the woods, asking if he was lost. The girl’s skin was pitch black, she had crimson red eyes and black midnight demon horns. Itazura, being a trouble maker, sensed that this wasnt right. She offered him her hand and he slapped it away. She asked what he was doing and when he said he was looking for his father, she immediately offered her help. But in return, he would get his hands and feet webbed like a frog. He refused and instead offered if she helped him, he would give her a mighty snake that would scare everyone she hated away. She accepted and before he left, Itazura put his hand on her shoulder and said “done.”

Turns out he slowly put an illusion on her that would slowly become real. He did give her a snake yes, but he made her the snake itself. This transformation would only be broken once Itazura cried tears of guilt for an action he did which he says would never happen as he hardly ever feels guilt for his tricks.

In summary, he turned Demoness who was slowly turning into a dark black liquid overtime into a serpent. He was completely aware of who she was and the reason it worked was because he used her own desperation to live against her. Before she realized it was a trick, she gave him an eight legged black horse, which he rides to this very day. He rode it into the forest that withheld the mirror of Purity and due to a crack, transported him to Knowlsworth instead. To get to Favoriteland, he tried to enroll in I.A. So that he’d meet the other Northern isles and deceive them to get what he wanted.

When Itazura applied to I.A, the principal was shooken. He said Itazura was too young to go to I.A right now, but maybe a couple of years later he’d be ready. But Itazura had no time to wait and as such, he tricked the principal into letting him take the most advanced test at the same level as everyone else. Coincidentally, this was the year when Ronri, Zephyr, Azrix and Celsius were applying to I.A. Itazura was a little bit shorter than everyone else considering the age gap of 2 years. To everyone else, he seemed like an easy opponent to beat, he later proved them wrong.

He used his powers to transform into Celsius for the first test, he made a green aura around him to signify it was him, not Celsius. He did this so he could use Celsius’s tall body to his advantage. For the second test, he transformed into teenage Derlink so he could use his strong and flexible body to ace that part. The teachers were surprised and couldn’t believe what they were seeing. Even Hyuzu was there, secretly watching in surprise. Itazura then changed back into his original body (which was him) to fight whoever was put his way. He was selected to fight Ronri Soliare (Hamaliel’s son) and he immediately pulled out two daggers from his sleeves. Only to be notified that wasn’t permitted. He sighed and said “fine, I’ll do this the harsher way” as he got onto all fours. Ronri meanwhile put up a fight and ran towards Itazura. Itazura then picked up some dirt off the stadium floor and turned it into a rope. He tied it around running Ronri and rode on his back. Ronri shook him off, hurting Itazura in the process, but Itazura then turned into a lion and roared in Ronri’s face. He pounced, scratched and bit Ronri and Ronri’s outfit became tattered with holes and pieces on the ground. The finishing move was Itazura slamming into Ronri with his big horns and slamming him back and forth with his sharp three pronged tail over and over until he could hardly breathe. Ronri was about to one hit K.O Itazura with his best move, but Itazura blew green dust in his face (Mischief dust that allows Itazura to manipulate their decision making for a bit. He automatically makes this dust by breathing it like Azguel breathes fire). Ronri then didn’t know what to do and Itazura tricked him whispering in his ear “Is this what Hamaliel would want from his sweet son? To hurt an innocent person? Wow, you really are heartless.” Ronri then stopped dead in his tracks and Itazura bit his arm (allowing him to make Ronri mischievous to do the opposite of what he wants), forcing Ronri to walk out of the ring and forfeit. Ronri still was accepted, but the others knew to watch out for Itazura.

The teachers were very pleased with Itazura’s results and accepted him despite being only 13 as he showed promise. From the very beginning, Itazura’s goal was to get to Favoriteland by notifying who could take him there. But he later was pulled through various teamwork tests. His first “friend” was Ronri. Who listened to Htrae’s radio waves coming from a planet called “Earth” where apparently various religions exist and things called “humans” lived there. Ronri also figured out that these people had “mythology” that came in “Norse” and “Greek.” Ronri gave him the nickname Loki after what Earth called “the God of Mischief.” Ronri stated that it was because Loki had an eight legged steed also named Sleipnir, that he also had a giant serpent and wolf and that he also did mischievous acts upon mortals. He figured the two were alike enough to share the name in a sense. Itazura at first got irritated when they called him Loki, but then he warmed up to it and even likes the name.

Using this code name, Itazura grew somewhat attached to Ronri as he had interesting information about the weak planet “Earth” and Ronri actually understood his personality. Even praising him for being so unique, maybe more than any other Favorite to ever exist! Ronri slowly started to shift Itazura’s perspective on Favoriteland and even helped calm Itazura down when he got vengeful. In any case, Ronri bluntly talking to Itazura about interesting facts about Earth was the start of their friendship. They even became Best Friends and canceled out each other’s negative actions.

Ronri and Itazura began to develop some sort of affection for each other as well. It was made pretty clearly that Ronri fell madly in love with Itazura after he smooched him on the lips. However, Itazura kissed him back after pulling Ronri by his collar, which started their romantic relationship. The two started dating and then Itazura told Ronri that since he was a shapeshifter and could turn into a female, he loved both men and women, making him bisexual. Ronri told Itazura that he didn’t know how to approach such an “attractive boy” like him and that he too, was bisexual.

The two were definitely boyfriends after that kiss and they even started displaying affection in class, kissing during lectures from their teacher. They held hands and sometimes during lunch, Itazura would sit on Ronri’s lap and the two would make out for long periods of time. They even went on dates frequently and were sent to the office for “Disrupting the class.” Inside the office, they kissed while being lectured by the principal. Ronri was 15 and Itazura was 13 when they met. They even started seeing each other In the janitors closet so nobody would see. The boyfriends started flirting even more, during classes! They were so intimate that they were separated by I.A via desk change.

However, after the two encountered a girl named Angie, who became Itazura’s rival, tension started to brew. Ronri argued with Angie over Itazura. He said he didn’t like her torturing his boyfriend and he would give her a taste of her own medicine if she touched a hair on his head. Everytime Angie saw those two kiss, she was jealous. Angie also loved Itazura and after Itazura realized she was just like him, a shapeshifter, he fell in love with her. She told Itazura all about her power and that she was bisexual because of it. She kissed him like Ronri did, but he was still Ronri’s boyfriend. So, he sadly told Ronri he fell in love with someone else, to which the latter smiled and cried the whole night from heartbreak. Itazura gave him one last kiss after he broke up with him, then he became Angie’s boyfriend. The two felt more love together than Itazura felt with Ronri, leading to the two of them getting married in the future.

When Itazura got to Favoriteland, it was his destiny to go through all Favoriteland’s next generation to get to the king (which was Azguel). He immediately got passed Ronri, he tore Zula apart in battle, making her regret fighting him even, fought valiantly with Zephyr, defeated the Trebleclef Triplets and got to Azrix. Who gave him heck at I.A by beating him to a pulp with explosions (making Itazura terrified of explosives). Itazura nearly lost, but defeated Azrix as well. He then got to Azguel, who immediately seen his level of power and hatred in his eyes. They almost fought until Itazura informed he was looking for his father that left him. After deducting it to Hyuzu, Azguel realized that Itazura was his nephew and greeted him politely, despite everything he did.

Itazura didn’t know his uncle Azguel as he had a whole bunch of work to do, but Azguel definitely seen him. A few weeks after Itazura was born, Azguel heard the news from one of his death minions and went by the palace to meet him. Hyuzu however, seemed distant from the child, making Azguel a little weirded out. While Itazura was the secondary antagonist, the main antagonist was actually someone else. Right when Itazura makes amends with everyone else but Hyuzu, a giant demon comes by and traverses over Favoriteland. This demon turns out to be Overrule, the dead eldest son of Demoness who was pure evil. He was responsible for Htrae becoming evil slowly but surely. As more Rogues emerged than Sainto’s, people thought it was just “the times” but it wasn’t. Overrule was never truly dead. Hellians never really die. Their bodies might, but their evil remains FOREVER. It haunts Favoriteland and everything it stands for.

Overrule thought Itazura would be the perfect vessel to live in. After all, Itazura was one of the strongest Next Generation Favorites, why not take over his body? This was why Itazura felt gravely ill from time to time, why the heck he stopped at nothing at I.A. This was the true reason everyone feared him. He couldn’t sense Overrule, but the Htralia could. That and the legend of Mischief who looks exactly like Itazura. Overrule said that the revolution was coming and that Azrix will perish. In hearing this, Itazura trapped Overrule in a jar of statis. A place where nothing can free Overrule. Itazura couldn’t believe what he said. That Azrix would perish? That’s nonsense! Itazura didn’t believe a word he said.

Itazura’s “Conquest of Vengeance”
At age 13, in the Favoriteland: Rebirth series, Itazura left Mythra to go on a journey to fix his broken and shattered family by finding his brother and getting revenge on his father. He did this because he looked around and seen there was no family to be with: Diana (mom) was in an asylum since she committed herself after hurting Itazura accidentally. His brother was missing for three years and his father disappeared without a trace shortly after Itazura was born. Thus Itazura was the one who kept his family together, almost as if it depended on him! Tired of being alone, he sought out at a young age.

Upon his journey, Itazura visits many of Htrae’s continents from Vula to Amalia in search of Azrix. He came upon a Vulcanian library that told him Azrix actually did visit them and read up on the Imaginary Isles. Itazura then made it hid goal to somehow get up to them. Even though he had wings, all beings have to enter through some sort of gateway. He started to search for the “Shattered Mirror” which was the mirror Ryanch went through in th first series. But to get there, he faced hardships.

Itazura had to fight off a number of Hellians who were crawling all over Htrae just to survive. He fought hundreds when he climbed an Elven mountain to get “The Fragment of Emotion” at which he felt like dying instead of continuing. He felt as though death was drawing near and was even willing to just give up and starve to death, but had a feeling and thought he just couldn’t let it happen. Itazura, being stubborn, continued on his treacherous journey that tested every skill he had. When he reached Humalia to obtain the “Fragment of Justice” it nearly killed him to absorb. He had to absorb all the fragments to get transported to the Imaginary Isles at which point, they’d all be reset after and hidden for decades to come. The Justice Fragment nearly burned him inside out, but settled down after Itazura drank some pure water (waters of a sacred lake that’s said to have been blessed by the first ruler of Favoriteland themselves). He eventually absorbed all the fragments and was teleported to Knowlsworth where I.A stood tall and mighty. Itazura worked too hard to get here:

-Having to Find Pure Water

-Getting Constant Migraines From Vula’s Logic Fragment

-Having Uncontrollable Mood Swings From Eeleve’s Emotion Fragment

-Being Sensitive to Sound From Amalia’s Harmony Fragment

-Pessimistic Thoughts and No Desire From Mythra’s Desire Fragment

-Having to Fight off Hellians just to live

After all of this, Itazura could not and would not throw in the towel. It took a third of a year to even realize he had to get to the Imaginary Isles and it took 2/4ths just to get there! Now he had to find a way to get to Favoriteland. After all, it was his last name, so there had to be answers! But to do that, he had to enroll at I.A so he could get assigned to Favoriteland’s newest members. After managing to traverse unpleasant and hard, but later easy tests, Itazura finally made it to Favoriteland. But he was changed from his experiences. He was no longer as vengeful or careless or childish as he used to be. He was a little bit more serious and displayed his soft side more than before. He just wanted his family back together instead of getting revenge on his father, but he still would because it was overdue for Hyuzu to get smacked across the face by reality instead of drinking 24/7 for another year or two.

He forgot why he was even on his conquest during his time on it, but was reminded why when he met Angie and Ronri. Angie who was also called a monster and Ronri, who was a close friend of Itazura. But was tricked when Itazura transformed into a female version of himself to fool everyone on April fools day. Ronri got a crush on female Itazura and even asked him out when he was female. When Ronri was about to kiss Itazura, he transformed back to normal and everyone laughed at him for being fooled. After this, Itazura realized how many times he used illusions to make a fake family on a number of occasions. He remembered the reason.

However, Ronri came out as bisexual when he kissed Itazura. Ronri wanted a romantic relationship, but after Itazura fell head over heels for Angie, he couldn’t resist her and married her.

When he met Azguel, he realized that he was his uncle and Azguel said that Hyuzu became an alcoholic and was for the past 13 years. That he was in no shape to father his family. Azguel said he tried millions of times to make Hyuzu stop, but he wouldn’t. Even when Azguel banned drinking and bars, he found a way! So Azguel pulled Hyuzu into the room by his hair and scolded him in front of his son. Then Hyuzu and Itazura fought a hard and long battle, with Itazura demolishing Hyuzu.

Near the end of Rebirth, Itazura confirms he actually met Connor, Ryanch’s grandson BEFORE Azguel saw Ryanch one last time before he took an elderly Ryanch to Heaven. Itazura was well younger than before. Connor and Itazura were actually BFF’s during elementary years, stayed together. But then Connor moved back to his original home with his grandpa later on (He moved to Mythra due to his parents jobs). After his parents died. Itazura forgot all about him until he reunited with him in Rebirth.

Events of Favoriteland Uprising
In the events of Favoriteland Uprising, Itazura sits on the throne of Mythra. With Diana mentally unstable, Hyuzu, too afraid to face his people and Azrix, who wanted to turn it down. The people loved that Itazura kept his promise and returned, but asked where Azrix and Hyuzu were. Hyuzu made a sudden and surprising appearance and said that he has returned, but the Mythrians got confused. He left them, for TOO MANY YEARS. Those years with a little kid sitting on the throne for the majority! It’s almost as if he didn’t care about them. They looked at Itazura for what they should say and he said “What? Why do you need MY opinion? I’m not the king anymore!”

Turns out that the people preferred Itazura as their king. They liked his easy going attitude and the fact that he came from a family torn apart and he brought it back together. It showed determination and dedication. Despite him him being a mischievous scamp, the people saw him as a good king! He did admit to the horrible fact he was the demon in the legends, but the legend was partly wrong. He wasn’t going to slaughter anyone, he was going to pull treacherous tricks on them instead. The people were terrified of him now.

But Itazura explained that he WAS supposed to slaughter people with three pronged things and will. But because it’s a sign they’re dying and are in pain (he wanted to say because he’s a part of death’s helpers, but had to keep Favoriteland a secret, only as his last name.) Luckily, Itazura is a scoundrel with intelligence for lying. The people bought it because Itazura did prove to be a caring king who is respected and he “wanted to spare them pain” he succeeded in manipulating Mythra entirely! Hyuzu was irritated and upset that he was no longer Mythra’s king, but it couldn’t be helped. Itazura didn’t take garbage from citizens either! In a vote, Itazura and Hyuzu took a test to see who was more respected.

They both sat in different rooms with one twin brother for each of them. They were supposed to defuse the situation of an angry citizen bursting into the castle swearing at them and yelling. Hyuzu played it by the book and took it to the face and said the issue was to be resolved immediately. While Itazura smashed a glass bottle and said “Want me to introduce you to my friend? NEVER swear at me EVER, or I’ll turn you into a slimy lizard that will have to sleep in dirt forever. Or maybe a piglet? Choice is yours precious citizen. What’s the issue? Make sure you show respect as well!” Although the citizens were terrified, they respected Itazura stood up for himself. He also showed to be understanding of people’s needs.

This was crucial because shortly after, Orochi told Hyuzu that since he has the DNA, he’s the rightful heir to the kingdom of the Merfolk. The dead and extinct race from radiation and waste. The fish everyone eats today. Since he was overthrown by Itazura, Hyuzu became the underwater king and brought the Merfolk back. He was the king of something again!

Shortly after, Itazura was sent to train Connor on orders from Azguel. The two became close like siblings. Connor was smart, inventive and emotional. Itazura admired his work and they became friends. When Flare started the Flare Revolution/Uprising, Itazura played a key role in defeating them. He was a spy for Favoriteland and reported back to them daily. He did get caught, but killed Flare’s guards while escaping. In the final hours of the fight (the last parts of the Uprising series), Itazura is saved by Azrix as Flare’s ray was a “Soundwave Ray” which was almost as strong as Orochi’s soundwaves. This was to paralyze the Favorites and allow them to be killed, but Azrix didn’t let that happen.

Azrix was diagnosed with an anomaly of a weakness. It most certainly wasn’t normal for Favorites, but Endraxus confirmed that Azrix was VERY vulnerable to sound. Particularly very loud sounds like monster truck rally’s, rock concerts and others. If he were to be exposed to such horrible noises, he would start to melt. This was to make up for his prestigious Element that allowed him to have explosive water which would explode when he wanted. He remembered his father took him to Endraxus a couple months before his disappearance and was filled with hate and was enraged that his son had such a horrific weakness. Of course if the noises were temporary, he could repair himself. But this soundwave ray was consistently hurting him.

''“The more I stand in a noisy area, the more of my soul is destroyed. When I have no more of my soul left, I’ll be nothing more than a puddle.”''

Azrix melted and started to die right after the ray malfunctioned and when Itazura caught him. He was droopy and was dripping everywhere. He knew his time came and told Itazura to smile for him so he would know he saved him from more than the ray, but from his hurting. Itazura found it hard, but laughed and smiled out of sadness with tear filled eyes. This was the most expressive moment for Itazura aside from being reunited with everyone in Rebirth.

Overrule’s words were true! “Azrix will perish.” Itazura stabbed Flare over and over out of hate through his back, his side and his knee. Allowing Connor to kill him easily. Itazura held Azrix in his arms one final time before he died and his eyes darkened. For the first time since he left Htrae, Itazura cried. He couldn’t bear it. He went to the tree where they used to play under and buried him single handedly. He adorned the statue (which was his grave) of him with the best flowers he could find and made them glow as an illusion he made real. He told nobody about giving Azrix a private funeral because he didn’t want to break his family up again. His mom was still a bit depressed and hurt from Hyuzu, Hyuzu didn’t know much about Azrix and Azguel already knew. He stuck a picture of them smiling together when they were young children and made the heartwarming speech he thought he’d never have to say. As he said this the spirit of Azrix was watching next to him. He couldn’t be seen, but he was there.

''“People say I am a monster, but not you. Please stop messing around and come back to me! You’re making me mad!……I’m just….I’m joking brother. You meant….the world to me! I’m not ready to be alone again, not ready to rule a kingdom yet truth be told. So please come back. I need you. I miss you! You might not be listening, but if you are…just stay with me ok? Don’t leave me….not again..I can’t take it again! I feel like I can’t smile without you. I’m sorry for slashing you with a knife that one Halloween, or that time I bit you when I was a cobra. Please…stay with me….forever..”''

When he starts to walk away he says the thing that breaks Azrix’s heart.

''“I was always mad at you because I was envious of you…but that never once meant that I didn’t love you. If you come back, I’ll give you the biggest hug and I don’t really like hugs either! Rest in piece Azrix…after it’s all said and done, you made me feel…truly happy…I love you. Now you have a good time in Heaven.”''

Then, Itazura walks away with his friend Angie holding her hand. He tells her:

''“Let’s be monsters together if you’re called one! So was I.”''

They start to walk away into the sunrise, signifying that after all of that, Itazura finally made his peace. It’s shown Itazura eventually has 5 kids in a family portrait with his snake and wolf being his kids (they can turn into Htralia forms but with signs they aren’t what they seem). Jotun was short for Jörmungandr and Fen was short for Fenrir. Apparently Angie was indeed a “monster mother” and despite her being some sort of Mythrian, her kids were a huge serpent and a terrifying wolf. Itazura also had a daughter with her and named her Hel.

Future:
In the future which is hinted after he has kids leading into a new series, Itazura has fallen into a dark and twisted future when it came to his relationship with his old friend Connor. Connor, being crowned king of the Flares and king of all authority figures like firefighters, police officers and lawyers, asked why Itazura doesn't let his people into Mythra. Itazura slams the door behind him and yells at Connor in an unintelligible voice, hinting to the audience there’s more than one reason as to why Itazura hates Flares. In the ending of Uprising that leads to another series of an unknown time for now, he sits on a black and grey throne with curtains over his windows. He sits there with a depressed look on his face signifying that the reason he’s depressed is because of Flares (most likely his brother Azrix’s death from the first one ever made). He is shown to love his family and unlike Hyuzu, actually shows compassion and love in such caring situations. But upon hearing that a Flare is trying to enter Mythra really gets his rage going and he is hastily trying to find them. His children are Favorites as well!

Aether “Dorobō” Favoriteland:
Aether, being born from Mischief and Deception is the Favorite of Thieves/Thievery. He is responsible for stealing prized possessions and playing around with his victims. Aether is well known although he isn’t seen at all. People call him “Snake Charmer” and “Silver Tongue Devil” for his deception he inherited from his father. He is a neutral Favorite (he reinforces a negative element, in this case, Thievery) Aether strongly believes that Hyuzu was mentally unprepared to be a father He is on Itazura’s side and Hyuzu’s sidein terms of the relationship between Itazura and Hyuzu. Aether also clashes frequently with Narvi in terms of their methods and their mortals. It was his father that named him because he thought he’d be the Favorite of Htrae. Aether in Favle is defined as “Compassionate One”

Jormungandr “Konton” Favoriteland:
Jormungandr, the short form and Htralia name being Jormun, is the Favorite of Chaos. He was born a giant serpent who is said to be bigger than the Waterbone Serpent (Hyuzu) and he also inhabits the sea with his grandfather. Unlike Itazura, Jormun is on good terms with Hyuzu. He is responsible for creating events with powerful, intense and crazy actions. These events are unpredictable and potentially dangerous. He is also a negative Favorite somewhat like his brother Aether and the two often compliment each other’s elements. Jormungandr sides with Aether about his morals and shames Narvi for his. It was Angie who named Jormungandr because of Ronri begging her to do so. He was the 4th born

Narvi “Chigau” Favoriteland:
Narvi is the Favorite of Wrongdoing. He is the one responsible for many of the crimes that Connor solves and is seen as very dangerous. While he loves his father, he also loves his grandfather and stands in the middle of their relationship. He believes that Itazura should open up to Hyuzu to see what he’s really like, but that Hyuzu should consider all he’s done and he should apologize. Narvi is also the “Faceless Leader” of Illegality and Connor’s son Mark tends to clash with him. Narvi is warned many times by Aether that while crime is sweet, he doesn’t control Thieves and the concept of Thievery. Narvi tends to be greedy with Aether, wishing he controlled Thievery so he’d be “The Leader of Crime.” But Aether warns him one day he’s gonna get caught if he doesn’t tone down. His morals lie that all crime should triumph and let loose. Angie named him because she became aware most of the kids her and Zura had were negative ones and according to Ronri, Narvi was a being of Wrongdoing. He is the second born.

Fenrir “Waiver” Favoriteland:
Fenrir is a ruthless Favorite and is known as the Favorite of Viciousness. He possesses great strength like his father, but isn’t all that smart. He tends to punch his problems out of the way. He was born a wolf, but has a form that resembles a Humarian with wolf ears. He clashes with his younger sister Hel and picks on her all the time. Aether is the only child in Itazura’s family that’s stronger than Fen and is the only one aside from his parents that actually stands up to him. Narvi and Fen are a chaotic duo and Fen agrees with Narvi’s mortals and he likes Hyuzu, but dislikes Itazura because Itazura has morals while Fen does not. It was Aether that suggested the name for Fen. He was the third born a year after Narvi. He does know when someone uses him and goes too far.

Hel “Shini” Favoriteland:
Hel, while said to bring death everywhere she goes, is actually the Favorite of Prosperity. She is in tight ties with Derlink and his children because of her ability to make plants grow at tremendously fast rates. She is picked on by Fenrir for her good natured personality and with her being the only positive Favorite of Itazura’s family (aside from Hyuzu whos neutral). Hel was named by Itazura because Ronri said that Hel was the Norse Goddess of Death and when she was born, plants died. Despite this, it was actually Azguel who killed the plants due to them being poisonous. Hel actually mimics Derlink with her tinkering with life. Just as Derlink can bring plants to be sentient and alive, Hel can help them grow, but can’t bring them to life like Derlink. She is also the youngest. She’s responsible for growth in mentality and physical build.

Felony “Fericio” Favoriteland:
Felony was the youngest of her and her twin Hel. But she was murdered at a young age and was avenged by Aether in the future. She was the Favorite of Felonies at one point, but after her death, passed her element onto Aether as he was the eldest sibling.

Itazura’s Element of Mischief:
While Itazura’s element is commonly known as Deception (as it deceives ABSOLUTELY everyone), it’s actually called Mischief as he instills Mischief into anyone he bites or blows his “Mischief Dust” at. With this Element, he is definitely one of the most dangerous, devious and most powerful beings due to his illusions becoming real if believed in. He can:


 * As previously mentioned, he can create such realistic illusions that are nearly perfect with the exception of them being more intense than their real counterparts. If he creates a hurricane for instance, it only takes two people to believe it for it to actually become real and tear apart the opponents. He has to do all the details too, like the extreme winds, the temperature and the humidity along with a big hurricane. This is just one example of what he can do.
 * Itazura is a remarkable liar. He has a poker face and can easily detect lies in other people from one sign they unintentionally give off. He excels at this and fools anyone who isn’t aware of this.
 * In addition to him creating separate illusions, he can turn other people into other things. Like pigs, frogs, toads, snakes and even ladybugs! These illusions are scary as if believed in, they can come true as well. This doesn’t work on Favorites though, but on other Imaginary Beings absolutely. He turned a Southern bully into a snake and everyone believed it, that student was a snake for a whole week! But these illusions take a lot of energy before becoming real, even making Itazura faint and throw up sometimes. He can also turn animals into Htralia too. This can reverse turning a student into a snake and reversing the process, but he can also just plainly turn a horse into an elf if he wanted.
 * He can turn objects into other objects. Like rocks into knives, leaves into arrows and dirt into water. Which help him in fights.
 * He can turn himself into anything he wants. But unlike the other spells that when believed in come true, these ones never come fully true. Sure he’s a panther, if believed in, he can still turn back whenever he desires. He also fooled his class by turning himself into an alluring female version of himself, which Ronri kissed! As soon as Ronri closed his eyes, Itazura changed back and when he opened his eyes, he was shocked and pulled away. Itazura uses this ability to fool people and help his position in a fight.
 * Another side note from the point where Itazura can turn himself into anything is that he can make himself turn back into a younger age for as long as his limit lets him. He could be 1 again and fool everyone in a fight, turning back and stabbing them in their back. This is to make them feel horrible and hesitate, giving him an opening to strike.
 * Itazura can turn teammates against each other by blowing mischief dust in their face and having control over their actions. When he bites them, they hallucinate things that aren’t really there. This is cleverly disguised by him turning into a snake and biting.
 * Itazura is handy with daggers and can handle up to four daggers in a fight, but if he really must, he can go up to EIGHT.
 * A weakness he has is that if he puts a time limit on a transformation (like turning Demoness into a horrific serpent) he must avoid doing the thing he promised would break it. If he does, the transformation breaks and cannot be casted on the same person again.
 * Illusions that he does that involve himself turning into something else take large amounts of energy. If he turns into a teammate of an opposing team for example, his bright green eyes will give him away. That’s why a good target he chooses is Zephyr as his eyes are already green.

Fighting Styles:
Itazura is a tricky person to fight. He’s crafty, witty and intelligent. He’s very deceiving and devious in the ways he fights, but is also quite destructive unintentionally with his illusions. He prefers to fight with at minimum two Heavenly matter daggers or two bladed daggers (haladies) to cut his opponents to shreds. But he also enjoys toying with the opponent’s mind by tricking and or deceiving them into going onto his side instead and using them against their own allies. He’s a charmer and can fool even the smartest person with enough detail. He likes to jump scare his opponents and make them faint of fear, but if they don’t he just flies swiftly back and forth cutting them. Although he does use transformation on himself often to see where opponents are, giving him the upper hand at the start of any battle. Unlike his father Hyuzu who hated using his tail and horns, Itazura shows no shame and uses them relentlessly, smashing his opponents blow after blow. But he will resort to violence only if he absolutely must as he tends to be more sneaky and always has a thought out plan. Although he does love being the centre of attention in fights when he must show himself, stealing the spotlight from teammates. But if he doesn’t show himself he calls himself “The Man Behind The Curtain”. Regardless he’s the head honcho behind all of the fight plans and positions.

Relationships
Connor Pisukipa: Connor and Itazura were friends when they were very young. Itazura met Connor when he was very analytical and was able to be unfazed by horrific things. At the time, Connor was making his first robotic invention; A robotic arm that acted like a real arm, with nerves and even bone-like structure. Itazura was fascinated by his workmanship and talent, the two hit it off and became best friends. Itazura actually told Connor that he himself was talented as he took up forging and blacksmithing. Hence why Itazura uses some of the sharpest weapons in Favoriteland. Connor and him actually bonded overtime which greatly impacted both of them. But eventually, they never seen each other again until Rebirth. They now fight about if Flares (now called Lavinth) should be allowed to enter Mythra. Connor says that Htralia are aggressive and that they torture each other (referring to him being experimented on with robotic parts), while Itazura says Htralia are compassionate and Lavinth are aggressive. (Referring to Azrix being murdered by Flare an A.I and that Azrix, a Htralia was compassionate.)

Ronri Soliare: Before all the hearts, Ronri was Itazura’s nemesis. Itazura found him to be a threat and relentlessly fought him when he was told. But later, Itazura became good friends with Ronri after talking to him and even became best friends. Even more so, Itazura became Ronri’s boyfriend! Ronri was actually in love with Itazura. So much so that he kissed Itazura on the lips and flirted with him. Itazura kissed Ronri back and put his arms around Ronri’s neck. The two were in a very intimate relationship and kissed during class, but after Itazura fell in love with Angie, he broke up with Ronri…Ronri cried the whole night. Ronri adored his talent for blades and for his mischievous ways. Ronri was also the one who told Itazura that a planet called Earth has inferior species that have “Norse Gods” and that Itazura actually reminded him of one of them. Itazura warmed up to the nickname and even says his Elemental name is Loki because of Ronri. Ronri tries to maintain the peace between Itazura and Connor as they have different visions about Connor’s people. After the death of Angie, Ronri cheered Itazura up by taking him out as friends to a cityscape rooftop. Mythria had a more medieval vibe to it and the castle was lovely from the view.

Diana Favoriteland: Diana, Itazura’s mom was definitely in his favourite list. He was misunderstood by his father and was almost casted out just from being born, but Diana prevented that immediately, even yelling at Hyuzu telling him that he was being awful! Hyuzu allowed it, but was distant from Itazura. Diana loved him and was even defensive of him when Hyuzu asked about him, hiding him so Hyuzu wouldn’t take Itazura from her.

Hyuzu Favoriteland: Dear old dad Hyuzu wasn’t close with Itazura at all. In fact, Itazura despises his father so much, going as far as to hunt him down and fight him until he begged for mercy. They did fight and Itazura was victorious, but he didn’t make Hyuzu beg. Instead he took over the Mythrian throne while Hyuzu took over Mayonaka.

Azguel Favoriteland and Az’s Kids: Itazura never met his uncle Azguel except when he was a baby. Azguel was told by Hyuzu that he wasn’t allowed to visit, but Diana was delighted to see him and how much he cared. Azguel really cared about Itazura and his well being. When Itazura told Azguel that people said Azguel was the strongest being in all the Imaginary Isles, he said he knew he couldn’t win. Azguel said it was normal to feel that way and apologized for being intimidating. But then realized that Itazura was his nephew and immediately fought Hyuzu over the matter in a bar. Hyuzu said he had no second son to which Azguel smashed his beer bottle and threatened him to forget his loser ways and become a good father or he’ll make sure Hyuzu will never rule ever again. In summary, Azguel sticks up for Itazura and cares about him more so than Hyuzu himself!

Romance:
Itazura’s romantic life consists of two people. These two people are Ronri Soliare and Angie Dovyene.

Ronri and Itazura were once bitter enemies who didn’t like each other in any way. Or, so it seemed..Ronri actually fell head over heels for Itazura the moment he walked in the door. Ronri’s mind described Itazura as charming and alluring, with the perfect figure. But Itazura wasn’t there for love. He was there to track down his father to get revenge on him for abandoning his family. But that whole plan was postponed when Ronri kissed Itazura on a bench outside the schoolyard at night when they were alone. He confessed that he thought Itazura was the most beautiful and most charming boy he ever seen. Itazura blushed hardly and grabbed Ronri by his collar, kissing him back. The two went into a very serious relationship that involved a lot of flirting and romantic signs. They kissed during class, skipped classes just to be alone together and went out to cafe's whenever possible. Their relationship was definitely a huge one and was so intense that I.A had to separate their desks

But then when Angie, a new student who came to I.A (which was a very rare occasion), Ronri got protective of Itazura. He knew they were trickster rivals and threatened Angie that if Itazura was named in any way, he would give her a taste of her own medicine. Itazura however, was much more willing to joke around with her and even began to have romantic feelings for her after she told him about her shapeshifting ability. She was EXACTLY like him, which made it easy for Itazura to accept he loved he. She loved him too, but so did his boyfriend, Ronri.

However, many years later, after Itazura got married to Angie, Ronri also got married. He got married to Acey's daughter, Diame Casio after high school. The two were in love sure, but Ronri still had intense feelings for Itazura. After getting custody of his son, Falcon, Ronri did as a matter of fact ask out Itazura. Itazura was very hesitant because his wife, Angie was killed by Ledger after Ledger tried to kill Aether. Both were Itazura's kids. Itazura did go back with Ronri for a bit, but decided he wasn't ready to enter romance after.

Itazura was the best man at Ronri's final wedding to Bentley Passant, Chessla's son, the black bishop of chess. Ronri still loved Itazura, but after Itazura gave Ronri one last kiss and told him that happiness was non existent unless both partners are happy, Ronri decided Itazura felt pressured. He encouraged Ronri to move on from their passionate high school love and find tranquil, lifelong love. With Bentley, both Ronri and the black bishop were fulfilled.
